Teaching Method and Techniques:
My teaching method is rooted in holistic vocal health, incorporating positive psychology, social-emotional learning (SEL), and anti-racism principles. I focus on creating healthy, confident, and emotionally resilient vocalists by addressing the connection between mind, body, and voice. Key elements of my approach include:
1. Vocal Psychology: Helping singers understand how emotions and mental states influence their vocal performance.
2. Alignment and Chakras: Teaching singers to align their posture and breath with vocal production, emphasizing the role of energy centers in the body.
3. Individualized Instruction: Tailoring lessons to each singer’s goals, vocal range, and preferred genres.
4. Creative Expression: Encouraging singers to explore their artistic identity while building technical skills.
5. Cultural Awareness: Integrating global music styles and honoring diverse traditions in vocal performance.
A Typical Lesson Plan:
1. Check-In (5 minutes): Begin with a SEL-inspired check-in to gauge the singer's emotional and physical state. This could include a brief mindfulness exercise or journaling prompt.
2. Warm-Up (10 minutes): Incorporate exercises for breath control, vocal range, and resonance, customized to the singer's voice type and needs.
3. Technique Building (15 minutes): Focus on a specific technical aspect, such as vowel shaping, dynamic control, or agility, tied to the student’s goals.
4. Repertoire Work (20 minutes): Work on a chosen piece, blending technical instruction with emotional interpretation and stage presence.
5. Reflection and Goal Setting (5 minutes): Discuss progress, challenges, and next steps, often tied to affirmations or SEL principles.
6. Homework Assignment: Provide exercises, journaling prompts, or recordings to practice between lessons.
What Sets Me Apart as a Tutor:
1. Holistic Approach: my lessons are more than vocal training—they’re an experience in personal growth, emotional awareness, and cultural exploration.
2. Cross-Disciplinary Expertise: As a vocalist, Latin dancer, & endurance athlete, I bring a unique understanding of physical stamina, alignment, and performance psychology.
3. Inclusivity: my commitment to anti-racism and SEL ensures that all students feel seen, valued, and supported in their artistic journey.
4. Innovative Tools: I use tools like voice journals, surveys, and creative workshops to deepen the learning experience.
Who the Lessons Are For:
1. International/ Global Students: Vocalists looking for a supportive, culturally-aware environment.
2. Beginners to Advanced Singers: From those just discovering their voice to experienced performers refining their craft.
3. Aspiring Professionals: Students preparing for auditions, competitions, or university-level vocal programs.
4. Multi-Genre Vocalists: Singers exploring classical, contemporary, and global music traditions.
5. Holistic Learners: Students who value the integration of emotional well-being with technical skill.
My teaching method reflects my passion for inspiring love and beauty through the arts while nurturing healthy, confident, and resilient vocalists.
